I think if the P250 could be made reliable, and it seems Sig finally made that happen, it would be a perfect general issue gun.
It’s shootable enough, has a hammer to thumb, and a long, but light and smooth, trigger. Makes dry fire practice simple to boot.
For more highly trained units, have other options such as Glock or the M&P.
Believe @TGS has one in .380.
Agree with your points.
My work has a low percentage of shooters and they would probably be better served by a P250 with an exposed hammer and long trigger pull versus a striker fired pistol with a five to six pound short trigger pull and no hammer.
I would carry mine without hesitation.
Indeed, along with 10 mags and a holster. It's the Compact model.......so a Compact frame with a 15 round mag, but in the 380 version it features the Subcompact slide and the dustcover/light rail on the frame is snipped down to length.
It had light strikes at first, which were easily and definitively fixed. The FPS block was installed slightly sideways by the factory, so the firing pin would catch on it...in addition, the FP channel with slathered in packing grease by the factory.
Seems to be a good gun, I bought her for my wife as a CCW piece since her P226 is a tad big and heavy for a 5'9" framed 120lbs lady. With that said she decided to not pursue carrying and prefers to shoot her P226. I might hang on to it just because it's such a unique pistol: an insanely lightweight, duty-style 15 round build but in 380 and with a locked breech.
It's basically a unicorn.
100%.
Not to single out any particular profession in a degrading manner, but if I were in charge of an operation that used minimally-trained shooters such as security guards or correctional officers, I think it's the penultimate duty pistol.
Quite a fine pistol for higher performing shooters as well, and the trigger is definitely the best threat-management trigger on the market....far surpassing the DAK, LEM, and any old semi-auto DAO with the exception of a tuned Beretta 92. I'd be quite happy with the P250 9mm as a law enforcement duty pistol, provided we're in a vacuum and not subject to the whims of their absent QA/QC in real life.

I concur. Provided production and parts availability was current, I'd have compact barrels/slides, grip modules in both compact and carry, S/M/L, and a supply of 15 and 17 round magazines to choose from. Subcompact modules and magazines available for closer concealment applications, and Wilson modules authorized for those who wanted them.
I honestly think it would be a better issued weapon to non-shooters than a Glock or M&P.

Resurrecting an old thread with two questions for any P250 guru's. Did the first generation slides work on the improved second generation lowers with the better/improved FCU? Without difficulty?
Was the 2nd generation FCU compatible between both 9 and the 40/357 slides like the current P320's are?
thanks for any info
